White House Press Secretary Dana Perino mentioned in a press conference that she is not allowed to talk about the value of the U.S. Dollar. She says that the Treasury Secretary is the only one allowed to discuss the U.S. Dollar. She even said that she would be fired if she talked about the U.S. Dollar.
First off, its ridiculous that the Treasury Secretary is the only one that can talk about the value of the U.S. Dollar since the Federal Reserve is the institution that fixes the price of the U.S. Dollar. This is just a game of smoke and mirrors the Bush administration is playing because they know that the U.S. Dollar is in the process of losing a good majority of its value. Watch the video of the Dana Perino below talking about why she can't discuss the U.S. Dollar.

Did you see her face when he brings up OPEC

5. Exactly and Iran has gotten their Oil Bourse up and running

thats what this is all about folks

Paying for the American Empire of Corporations is going on the backs of every living American
they are shutting the country down so they have control

Thing is can they keep control with 80% of population pissed at them
and that includes our military

All I can say is they are so screwed up mentally

America is under attack buy these traitorous thieves in the White House and Congress

they want the North American Union and destruction of the dollar is in the play book

meanwhile Saudis get hugely richer and richer and richer

[ananda]

6. as for Saudis

The vast majority of Saudi people are havenots.

7. They can't go down that path

If they admit to why the dollar is dropping it is a big arrow right at the occupation of Iraq. The last thing they want to shine more light on.

All the money we have to barrow to pay for Iraq is tanking the dollar. No one will admit it but it is obvious to anyone paying attention. Instead the talking heads like to say it is because the interest rates were lowered thus making people want to buy dollars less. Which is Bullsh*t.

8. Stick to the "Cuban Missile Crisis," Dana...

Or, in your case, the "Bay of Cuban Missile Pigs Crisis"

[Jack Rabbit]

9. We don't need Dana Perino to tell us that the dollar is falling at 16 ft/sec squared.

We don't even need the treasury secretary.

We all know it and we all know it has to do with high levels of personal debt and huge budget and trade deficits.

We all know it causes inflation, a credit crunch and mortgage foreclosures.

So much for the neoconservative wet dream of unregulated markets.

10. the Cheney/Bush admin just picked her to look pretty. At least she spoke up and said she'd be fired

if she said anything about the dollar. The Admin won't even likeit that she said that!

[macracan]

11. Why do people still listen to this administration?

Have they ever said something truthful or useful???

[FiveGoodMen]

12. "Have they ever said something truthful or useful???"

Never.

Literally never.

[percussivemadness]

13. she`s cute

who cares about the dollar? (visualize sarcasm smiley here, I just can`t be bothered)
